| Buhari & Ezekwesili. |
The
Former Vice President of the World Bank, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili tweeted the
following.
"I
want EVERYONE to KNOW that the statement made by the @WorldBank President
@JimYongKim IS NOT AS IT SOUNDS. I should KNOW. I was VP there.
No.
No. No, dear people. The FACT of that statement by the @WorldBank President
@JimYongKim is NOT AS IT SOUNDS. I will explain.
As
a practice, POST- conflict zones -e.g. Northern Uganda, Northern CAR, Eastern
DRC receive Special Focus from .@WorldBank .It MAKES SENSE!
As
the destabilization in the North East worsened Human Development Indicators in
North East Nigeria, our country SADLY JOINED that List.
The
Evidence-Based justification for PRIORITIZING Post-Conflict Reconstruction is
that it helps BUILD RESILIENCE & Prevents a RELAPSE.
In
ALL the cases of countries like CAR, DRC, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Guinea
(both Bissau & Conakry) this was the APPROACH.
Prioritizing
Reconstruction of Post-Conflict zone in ANY of those countries FACTUALLY PROVED
to be KEY for REST OF COUNTRY GROWTH&STABILITY!
The
prioritizing given to North East in discussion between @JimYongKim & @MBuhari
is thus NOT UNUSUAL AT ALL. Let's NOT POLITICIZE IT please"
